Personally, I always felt McCartney's B-sides to be the saving grace to most
of his rather shoddy album output. Nearly all the B-sides to the "Off THe
Ground" album were better than those ON the album. In fact, I have a double
CD package with the B-sides distilled onto their own disc. I play that one
and not the actual album.
